Prepare 2 shots of espresso. If you do not have an espresso machine, you can use 1/2 cup of strong brewed coffee as an alternative.
Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Do not let it boil. Alternatively, you can heat the milk in a microwave for about 1 minute.
Froth the milk using a frother, handheld whisk, or by shaking it in a jar with a secure lid. Set aside.
In your coffee mug, combine the caramel sauce and chocolate syrup. Stir well to create a uniform base.
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into the mug and stir to mix with the caramel-chocolate base.
Add the heated and frothed milk to the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon and then spooning it on top of the drink.
Taste the coffee and, if desired, stir in the optional granulated sugar for added sweetness.
Top the coffee with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
Drizzle additional caramel sauce over the whipped cream and sprinkle chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your decadent caramel chocolate coffee.
